IMĀM OF THE WEST
In a world where “Imam” is thrown around for the likes of Omar Suleiman and other apostates, it was odd too see a reluctance on part of the people of Tawheed, particularly in the west, when we (and other Da’wah accounts) would refer to Shaykh Ahmad as an Imam. Some even saying this is “too much,” or some noticeably being silent. Some would jealously try to prop up their own favorite scholar in response, while anyone with a basic grasp of the Arabic language, and a foundational understanding of Tawheed would know, there’s no one on the scene like Shaykh Ahmad, and it’s not even close.
What is the criteria, as mentioned in the Qur’an, for those who are Imams of Guidance?
As-Sajdah 32:24
وَجَعَلۡنَا مِنۡهُمۡ أَئِمَّةً يَهۡدُونَ بِأَمۡرِنَا لَمَّا صَبَرُوا۟ۖ وَكَانُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا يُوقِنُونَ
And We made from among them (Children of Israel), leaders, giving guidance under Our Command, when they were patient and used to believe with certainty in Our Ayât (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.).
The Shaykh has raised an entire generation upon Tawheed, بفضل الله, and has likewise experienced the full aggression and animosity of the entire west.
The reality is, only few know of the heavy restrictions that were imposed upon the Shaykh - for more than 20 years now - and for those who know, the extent and severity of these restrictions remain close to the Shaykh’s heart, actualizing the Ayah:
Yusuf 12:86
قَالَ إِنَّمَآ أَشۡكُواْ بَثِّى وَحُزۡنِىٓ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَأَعۡلَمُ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ
He said: "I only complain of my grief and sorrow to Allâh, and I know from Allâh that which you know not.
The Shaykh has essentially sacrificed his life for the Da’wah of Tawheed, while some who are unable to pronounce the Fātiha properly, are sitting behind their keyboards or Da’wah accounts, scoffing at the notion that our beloved Shaykh is truly an Imam.
Remember the Scholars in your Duā’, and don’t let the feminine whispers of the jealous hearts, or the barking of the rabbid dogs, lead you to belittle the status of this Giant حفظه الله تعالى. Support his Da’wah in any way you can, whether it be by word of mouth, sharing links, creating unique content using his works, or simply transcribing. The possibilities are many to share in the Da’wah (and Ajr!) of the Shaykh.
I ask Allah to protect and preserve our beloved Shaykh, and give him a long life full of deeds, and raise his ranks and status in this life and the next.
والحمدلله رب العالمين

Your children are an investment for you!
Love is not something to be concealed and sealed in the heart, you have to express your love to your children. It is just like faith, faith is in the heart but it must be accompanied by utterance and actions with the limbs, which in turn increases the faith. Love must be manifested in your actions and words too, it can be done in a combination of ways such as gestures, touching, cuddling, playing with them, giving them time, verbal expressions etc., even something as simple as talking to them about their day. When you do this, it brings about mutual love and admiration between yourself and your children. When your children admire and love you, they will listen to you and execute what you want them to do. Building a good relationship and communicating with them, gently speaking with them, it’s all a part of faith. It may feel like a few minutes for you but children recall such precious few moments all their life. Children are truly an investment, you reap what you sow. Giving them time brings up healthy children in a healthy and safe environment. As the saying goes, teach your children moral character and religious issues during and from the softness of their nails I.e., when they’re very small, early age, their nails haven’t even developed yet. Don’t forget that your children are an extension of your deeds after your death, if you raise them good, as it should be, they will be your shield from the hellfire!
Umar bin Abu Salamah رضي الله عنه was just a little boy and under the care of the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم. The Prophet gave him three different rules and he was just a young boy, the Prophet was advising a toddler, but he did it gently, nicely and kindly! When Umar ate with the Prophet his hand would roam around all over the dish,
The Messenger of Allah advised him: O young man,
1. Mention Allah's Name (i.e., say Bismillah before starting eating)
2. Eat with your right hand
3. And eat from what is near you."
Later in life, Umar bin Abu Salamah commented upon this saying, he never left off this rule all his life thereafter!
Children have dynamic minds, they are extremely intelligent and they pick up your actions more than your words when they are young. You see toddlers who cannot even speak but imitate the action of their parents, even when offering prayer. But this comes when you give your children love, care, attention and especially respect, they enjoy your company and they become attached to you rather than other things, they admire and respect you and they follow everything you say and everything you do. My son, Ahmad, who was crawling at the time would tug the prayer rug from where I used to fold it away, he’d pull it down and prostrate on it. Imitating. This stagnant mentality that is portrayed to us today of the youth being irresponsible and incapable, and should be left for idle play is absurd and the reason for the downfall of society. Islam is not like that, the religion of Islam was raised on the shoulders of the youth who carried it far and wide! You must set the foundations of building a strong personality for your children right from the beginning, that is a priority that comes before anything else. Especially in such a poisonous and materialistic society that we are in.

Very interesting how there was never any talk or excuse of a “journey” when it came to wearing a mask, but we hear that excuse time and time again when it comes to donning proper Hijāb and Niqāb.
Food for thought:
We’re willing to implement a CDC recommendation, that puts us through insane discomfort and inconvenience, immediately — for the sake of protecting our health and protecting our bodies in THIS life from the torment of getting sick or getting others sick.
But we’re not willing to implement the command of Allāh سبحانه وتعالى immediately for the sake of saving or bodies and souls from torment in the grave and hereafter, saving ourselves from indecency, and saving the eyes of others from sinning.
What could this indicate, except that our faith in the hereafter is shaky? If we really contemplated over the afterlife and believed in the Ghayb the way we believe what we see before our eyes, would we have such contradictory behavior?
Does protecting our bodies from sickness in this life take precedence over protecting them from an eternal fire whose fuel is men and stones?

"Staying silent [in the face of munkar] is animosity to the Haqq. Staying silent is protection of the Tawagheet. Staying silent is what guides one to the path of Jahannam."
— Shaykh 'Abdul Jabbar Shakir (حفظه الله)

"Compromising aspects of Hijab, choosing prettier, lighter colors, less fabric, etc thinking that it'll lessen the hatred & animosity of the Kuffar towards you, is defeatism.
Is it really worth changing ANYTHING you do fisabilillah for the sake of appeasing filthy disbelievers?
What's even worse is those who say to sisters statements like "wear lighter, brighter colors, the dark Niqab/Jilbab makes them uncomfortable".
Compromise on looking like the Mothers of the Believers, so that an enemy of Allah can feel less agitated?? Allah forbid.
As a sister once put it:
"I know wearing black is not obligatory, but seeing how much it enrages the Kuffar, I'm even more encouraged to don it (aside from the numerous other reasons), for if the enemies of my religion find it abhorrent, then there's something good about it. I know that some may permit showing the eyes, but seeing how much it frustrates their curiosity when they are covered, I will continue to cover them. They will not satisfy their age old obsession with "the women beneath the veil" through me, even if it be so much as an eye slit.
I'd rather be verbally abused, filmed, photographed, and laughed at due to my black outfit & covered skin than to have them smiling at me while I'm dressed in pretty colors. Their feelings are not my priority nor even my slightest concern. Rather, my priority lies in what's closest to Taqwa & furthest from adornment. In fact, in agitating them, I find pleasure."
Filthy hearts cannot contain their disgust at the sight of purity. If anything, compromising for personal comfort is more worthy than compromising for the Kuffar (though neither should be done of course). Why should purity be concerned with what filth thinks of it?"

THE SURŪRI
A common phenomena we see nowadays is the pseudo student of knowledge who goes “against the grain,” in matters where the matter is as clear as day, whilst trying to appear as someone of Manhaj. They are likened to a confused mixture of an Ikhwani/Salafi. They are quick to label the Muwahideen as extreme in Takfir, or having general Ghulu.
The following are some of their signs:
- Major Shirk can be excused
- Voting is an “Unclear” matter
- The current manifestation of being a spy is “not Kufr by consensus”
- The one who votes whilst knowing the reality of voting isn’t a Kafir, and that voting in general is a “disputed issue,” and when confronted, they cite Shaykh Sulayman Al-Alwan’s Fatwa (which is disastrous in its own right)
- Use principles of Usūl al FIQH in matters of Asl-Al-Deen, just like the modern day Ash’aris (neo-Jahmis)
- Making Tahākum isn’t Kufr
- Refers to the resident munafiq (Maqdisi) of Jordan as a Scholar (as well as other Murji’i scholars, and ex-Manhaj individuals who “saw the light”)
- Refers to Al-Turayfi as a scholar we should be listening to
These are just some of their signs, there obviously is more. They’ve attempted to infiltrate the people of Manhaj and cast doubts amongst those who are sincere yet not as well versed in certain matters.
If you come across anyone like this, no matter if they imply they’re a big-shot “student of knowledge,” then stay away.

THE PITFALL OF SELF PRAISE
Due to the scarcity of traditionally trained students of knowledge on the correct Manhaj, as well as Scholars, we often find the phenomenon of various efforts centering their Da’wah around either their own personal identities, or even worse (and equally cringe), those whom self-identify as either “Sheikhs,” “Ustadhs,” and or people of knowledge.
The disease of self amazement and creeping Riyaa was so much of an issue, even back in the day, that some of the classical giants (may have) fallen prey to it. Which is where the general principle of “taking the criticisms of generational contemporaries with a grain of salt,” comes from.
Jealousy is a very real issue in Da’wah, hence it’s extremely important to cut off any path to Riyaa, or self importance.
If that means covering your face, if that means staying nameless, if that means staying silent as the hypocrites bark, if that means staying silent as they slander you - then do so. Whatever it takes. How foolish is someone who spends hours upon hours on Da’wah efforts, spending it away from his family, only to then squander it for internet praise or a self appointed noscript.
My advice brothers and sisters, sincerity is your best means of promoting your Da’wah. By Allah, you’d be amazed as to how far your Da’wah will go, if you attempt to sincerely do it only for His Sake سبحانه و تعالى. People don’t know that the highest office in America, the president - at one point ordered his minions to find a way to “legally” remove Shaykh Ahmad’s works. Look at how far and wide his Da’wah has spread? The East and West have been raised on the Shaykh’s work.
May Allah grant us sincerity in our affairs, and keep us steadfast upon it.

Allāh Will Definitely Help His Messenger ﷺ
“Whoever thinks that Allah will not help him in this world and in the Hereafter, let him stretch out a rope to the ceiling and let him strangle himself. Then let him see whether his plan will remove that whereat he rages!”
[22:15]
Imām Ibn Kathīr رحمه الله commented on this verse:
“The meaning is,
whoever thinks that Allāh will not support Muhammad ﷺ and His Book and His Religion, let him go and kill himself if it annoys him so much. For Allāh will most certainly help and support him.
Allāh says:
إِنَّا لَنَنْصُرُ رُسُلَنَا وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَيَوْمَ يَقُومُ الْأَشْهَادُ

“He (Ibn Taymiyyah) said, when anyone begins to publicly curse the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, mock him, or ridicule him - back in his time he's talking about - people would get joyful and happy, in a way. Because they were cursing the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
Why? Their hearts would be filled with anger and rage, because of that which they hear. But they passed on to each other the glad tiding, they told each other there's good news in this matter. Because it was always a sign of victory, that it was right there and imminent.
Basically in a nutshell, whenever they curse the Prophet ﷺ more and more, victory is right around the corner. Muslims have experienced this many many times, he says."

Rights of the Husband #5: Being Served
The wife is obliged to serve her husband to the best of her ability, according to what is reasonable and customarily done by women of her status and for men of his like. Serving the husband includes things such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, and other domestic chores. Even the wives of The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and his daughter Fātimah were narrated to have served their husbands explicitly in multiple ahādīth, like the following:
It is reported on the authority of ‘Alī رضي الله عنه that Fātimah رضي الله عنها had corns in her hand because of working at the hand-mill. There had fallen to the lot of Allāh’s Apostle (ﷺ) some prisoners of war. She (Fātimah) came to the Prophet (ﷺ) but she did not find him (in the house). She met A'ishah رضي الله عنها and informed her (about her hardship). When Allāh's Messenger (ﷺ) came, she (A'ishah) informed him about the visit of Fātima. Allāh’s Messenger (ﷺ) came to them (Fātima and her family). They had gone to their beds. 'Alī further (reported): We tried to stand up (as a mark of respect) but Allāh’s Messenger (ﷺ) said: Keep to your beds, and he sat amongst us and I felt the coldness of his feet upon my chest. He then said: May I not direct you to something better than what you have asked for? When you go to your bed, you should recite Takbīr (Allāhu Akbar) thirty-four times and Tasbīh (Subhān Allāh) thirty-three times and Tahmīd (Alhamdulillāh) thirty-three times, and that is better than the servant for you. [Muslim]
at-Tabari رحمه الله said, in his commentary on this Hadīth: "we may understand from this Hadīth that every woman who is able to take care of her house by making bread, grinding flour and so on, should do so."
Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said, “The wife's serving of her husband is a matter about which there is no doubt. It is not correct to differentiate in this regard between a noble and a low class woman, or between a poor and a rich one. The most noble of all women (Fātimah) used to serve her husband. She came complaining to her father about the hardship she was facing in this regard, but he did not grant her her wish." [Zād al-Ma'ād]
Had it been obligatory for the husband to hire a maid or get a servant for his wife, instead of having her do these chores, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would have informed 'Alī of this and commanded him to do so, but he did not, which proves that these are the duties of the wife.
In another Hadīth, A'ishah (رضي الله عنها) said: "I used to wash the [traces of] janābah [from the clothes of the Prophet ﷺ] [Bukhari]
This serves as additional proof on the obligation of a woman serving her husband.
Shaykh Al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said, commenting on Allāh’s saying,
فَٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتُ قَـٰنِتَـٰتٌ حَـٰفِظَـٰتٌ لِّلْغَيْبِ بِمَا حَفِظَ ٱللَّهُ
“Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient and guard in the husband’s absence what Allah orders them to guard (i.e. their chastity).” [an-Nisā’]:
“This mandates the unrestricted obligation of a woman obeying her husband, in all affairs, such as serving him, traveling with him, assisting him and other matters, as is indicated in the Sunnah of Allāh’s Messenger.” [Majmū’ al-Fatāwā (32/260-261)]
Ibn Al-Qayyim رحمه الله said, “Those who say that it is obligatory for the woman to serve the husband use (this verse) as proof in that those who Allāh directed His Speech to (on this occasion) considered this to be from al-ma’roof (good). But as for the woman relaxing and having the husband serve her, sweep, grind the flour, knead the bread, wash the clothes, fix the bed, and serve the household, then that is from al-munkar (evil). Allāh says,
وَلَهُنَّ مِثْلُ ٱلَّذِى عَلَيْهِنَّ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ
‘And they (women) have rights (over their husbands) similar to those (of their husbands) over them.’ [al-Baqarah]
Also,
ٱلرِّجَالُ قَوَّمُونَ عَلَى ٱلنِّسَآءِ
‘Men are the protectors and maintainers over women.’ [an-Nisā’]
